MADDEN SMITH Game Report: @ Desert Hills

Crimson Cliffs was sadly handed a loss on Friday, but MADDEN SMITH did his best to prevent it. SMITH pitched three innings while giving up three earned runs off three hits. The effort marked the fewest earned runs he has had over his last four matchups.

Even though SMITH couldn't lead Crimson Cliffs over Desert Hills, he won't have to wait long to try again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday. SMITH has dominated as far as strikeouts are concerned (he's averaged 7.8 per game this season), but he's got his work cut out for him considering the Thunder have only allowed 2.93 per game this season.
